just saw monkey man and deeply excited for tumblr to see it, it’s got everything: excellently choreographed fight scenes, mythology parallels, dev patel covered in blood, an interlude in a queer commune, beautiful cinematography

monkey man asks important questions like: what if john wick had a complex subplot about class struggles and inequalities? what if a group of marginalized trans people helped killing the leaders of the rising conservative party? and last but most importantly: do you know how incredibly handsome is Dev Patel covered in blood?

sorry, i got tired of listening to George Lucas's voice so i just stopped watching The Phantom Menace commentary like 30 minutes in. but, now seated to watch Dev Patel's Monkey Man (2024). as usual, i know absolutely fucking nothing about the movie other than the fact that people i respect have been giving it glowing reviews on letterboxd, i haven't read any of them but i know it's been getting great reviews. i also saw like a YouTube thumbnail talking about Indian representation in this or something but obviously didn't see that either. it's in my watch later for whenever i eventually got around to the movie so i guess that day is today.
anyway, i'm already about to cry and i'm only 90 seconds into the movie, what the fuck have i got myself into.
#james talks#james watches stuff#monkey man#monkey man (2024)#dev patel#like why am i tearing up seeing and hearing a story i grew up listening to as a kid.#Dev's direction is fucking immaculate already btw. the way the shots seem to lose focus and only find human emotions in the world...#like actually genuinely so excited to see what Dev does here

I think the first movie i saw Dev Patel in was Slumdog Millionaire and Monkey Man feels like it brings that energy full circle

the thing about wuthering heights is that heathcliff is racially ambiguous and is compared to indian sailors or chinese emperors but that's used to signal to the audience how wild and unpredictable and savage he is so i don't necessarily think it's a requirement to cast an actor of colour to play him in fact i think if you're not being extremely careful it could end up being very very racist.
#margot robbie is terrible casting for cathy btw sorry margot ily#also. and this might make people mad. but the fact that jacob elordi's father is basque spanish would have been enough in the victorian era#for him to be racially/ethnically Othered from the upper class white english family. okay i'm almost done now.#everyone on twitter is saying she should've cast an indian heathcliff and i'm like idk do we really trust a posh white woman to do that#i'd love a dev patel heathcliff but i would want people of colour writing and directing too

holy SHIT the scene with the hijra fighting in the lobby is SO cool
#the metal music and the jingling of the metals and jewels on their clothing#fucking incredible#the pacing and the beat and the lighting#so cool. SO COOL AAAAA#this movie has me in a fucking chokehold#the attention to detail and subtleties in the acting and the filming angles and the pacing!!!!!#ALL OF IT#kid beating rana to death with wide unblinking eyes. he doesn't want to miss a second of it#the framing of the red elevator#the way kid says so few lines and each of them are so so intense#the sound of the birds and a whispered prayer after everyone is dead#the ''directed by dev patel story by dev patel produced by dev patel kid played by dev patel''#UGH WHAT A MOVIE#the peace at the end. violence and violence and violence and justice and then peace.#i guess i should've specified. this is about monkey man#knowing what i know abt how many bones dev patel broke and how many artistic liberties they had to take bc of filming issues#so cool#i cannot get the scene in the lobby out of my head#the flowing and grace and color mixed with the horrible violence and blood everywhere and sweat and tears#I LOVE IT AAA
